Honored as one of the 'Best Business Books' of the year by Axiom Business Book Awards for My Company 'Tis of Thee: 50 Patriotic American Companies American Consumers Should Know About (awards ceremony on May 29, 2013 in New York).

BAMW: Bringing back the American-made rubber duckThe rubber duck was an American invention before the entire industry moved offshore in search of cheaper labor. But Craig Wolfe's CelebriDucks became the top custom duck manufacturer in the world as well as the only one producing them in the USA - even exporting them to China!

BAMW: American sunglasses for American consumersIf you are looking for a unique brand of sunglasses that differentiates itself from the competition by focusing on frame construction with aircraft-grade aluminum and American-made quality, then look no further than GATORZ sunglasses.

BAMW: How free trade is ruining AmericaFree trade is contrary to what our Founding Fathers had in mind. No founding national document - be it the U.S. Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, or the Federalist Papers - mentions free trade or free markets in any sense of the terms.

BAMW: China is buying the U.S. one American company at a timeWhat's the best way for a country like China to exert its influence over the U.S. economy? Acquire American-owned companies like Chinese-owned Haier just did when they purchased General Electric's (GE) appliance business for $5.4 billion. So much for American independence and authentic Independence Day celebrations on July 4th.

BAMW: The only way to save Americais to Buy AmericanThe answer to America's economic problems is right under our nose - right in our own back yards. The answer is to Buy American and end the elusive and financially devastating attractiveness of supposedly cheaper imports. We must Buy American while there is still American left to buy.

BAMW: Make it an American-made ChristmasWhen we buy American-made Christmas gifts, we aren't just giving a gift to that special someone on our Christmas list. We are also giving an American worker the gift of continued employment so they can enjoy Christmas too and have money to spend on presents for their loved ones.

BAMW: Travel tough with American-made Tough Traveler gearIt doesn't matter if you're traveling for business or for pleasure, or for a long trip or an overnight stay. Or maybe you're just looking for a nice and unique Christmas gift for that special someone. Tough Traveler has you and your precious belongings covered.

BAMW: American-made should light the wayWe should do what we can to keep American producers and suppliers providing for our police, military personnel, and firefighters from American shores - not foreign shores. If we patronize the products of American producers regardless of what they produce, we keep them profitable and make it more likely they can keep producing their goods in America.

BAMW: Authentically American quality kitchenwareJacob Bromwell is one of the few patriotic companies you will find that has never outsourced production to low-wage labor countries to reduce costs because they have faith in the creativity and productivity of American workers.

BAMW: Don't tread on Chinese-made Dr. Scholl'sDon't tread on me. That should be how you look at Chinese-made Dr. Scholl's insoles, which are carried in your local Wal-Mart store despite their fairly recent and historic 'Buy American' pledge. The American alternative? Family-owned, American-owned (and American-made) ENER-GEL, whose insoles can be purchased here by going to my USA Shop.

BAMW: Truly American toothpasteWith Davids, it all comes down to the sustainability of American labor, American profits, American ingredients, American packaging, and American jobs.

BAMW: Free traders: Capitalist champions of unfair competitionDo you like and/or approve of unfair competition? If you're an advocate for free trade you do, whether you realize it or not. You may call yourself a capitalist, but if you approve of free trade, you approve of unfair competition within the capitalist system you propose to support.

BAMW: Buy American and Free Trade: A Love/Hate RelationshipIf you love Buying American, you should hate free trade. Literally. Why? Because you cannot claim to support making it easier for Americans to Buy American and favor free trade at the same time. That is if your goal is a stronger U.S. economy, more jobs here at home, and more prosperous America, at least.

It's easy to say we should buy American but it's not easy to actually do it. 'How Americans Can Buy American' goes a long way toward turning a good idea into reality. - Charley Reese

Forty-percent of the world is in recession. New records have
been set
for both personal and corporate bankruptcies. America's
trade deficit
continues to escalate to historic levels. The savings rate
has turned
negative, as the average consumer spends $1.10 for every
dollar they
earn. Real wages for working Americans have plummeted 19%
since 1972 -
about the same time we entered into a so-called "global
economy." We
only vote for our representatives every two or four years,
but we vote
with our wallets and checkbooks every day!

How Americans Can Buy American puts the steering
wheel
controlling our nation's fate in the hands of those who care
about it
most - The American People. The time has come for ordinary
Americans to
take control of America's destiny.
